Abstract

L'objet principal de l'invention est un système (100) de conditionnement d’une pluralité de sous-empilements (20a) de cellules à oxydes solides de type SOEC/SOFC haute température formant un empilement modulaire (20), comportant : une enceinte thermique (102) ; une pluralité de sous-empilements (20a) ; une pluralité de plaques terminales (40), présentant chacune des faces supérieure (40s) et inférieure (40i), la surface d’une face supérieure (40s) étant de plus grande dimension que la surface d’une face inférieure (20ai) d’un sous-empilement (20a) et la surface d’une face inférieure (40i) étant de plus grande dimension que la surface d’une face supérieure (20as) d’un sous-empilement (20a) de sorte à obtenir une ou plusieurs surfaces libres (40l) non superposées à un sous-empilement (20a) ; une pluralité de supports formant matrice (103), comportant un évidement (104) ; une pluralité d’éléments flexibles (105) au-dessus d’un évidement (104) ; une pluralité d’éléments d’appui (106) aptes à venir au contact d’un élément flexible (105) à le déformer. Figure pour l’abrégé : Figure 5The main object of the invention is a system (100) for conditioning a plurality of sub-stacks (20a) of high temperature SOEC/SOFC type solid oxide cells forming a modular stack (20), comprising: a thermal enclosure (102); a plurality of sub-stacks (20a); a plurality of end plates (40), each having upper (40s) and lower (40i) faces, the surface of an upper face (40s) being of greater dimension than the surface of a lower face (20ai) d 'a sub-stack (20a) and the surface of a lower face (40i) being of greater dimension than the surface of an upper face (20as) of a sub-stack (20a) so as to obtain one or several free surfaces (40l) not superimposed on a sub-stack (20a); a plurality of die supports (103), having a recess (104); a plurality of flexible members (105) above a recess (104); a plurality of support elements (106) capable of coming into contact with a flexible element (105) to deform it.
